Myths are more than ancient tales—they’re living maps that help us navigate transformation, struggle, and purpose. In Mythic Pathways, we explore the hero’s journey, liminal spaces, shifting perspectives, and the power of storytelling to shape our lives. From The Lion King to Medea, from duende to the call to adventure, we uncover how myth teaches us to embrace change, find our archetype, and bring back the elixir of wisdom. Whether you seek guidance, inspiration, or a new way to see your own journey, this podcast invites you to step into the story.

Allison Stieger is an acclaimed expert on the topic of mythology, storytelling, and personal transformation through narrative shaping. She holds a master’s degree in Mythological Studies from Pacifica Graduate Institute, and has more than twenty years of experience at Mythic Stories LLC working with individuals of all ages and from all walks of life on crafting the narrative structure of their lives using the powerful life-changing lessons from myths the world over.
